    Abstract:
    Two novel Gram-stain-negative, facultative anaerobic, non-flagellated, rod-shaped bacterial strains, designated MT13T and MT32, were isolated from sediment samples collected from the Mariana Trench at a depth of 8300 m. The two strains grew at -2-30 °C (optimum, 25 °C), at pH 5.5-10.0 (optimum, pH 7.5-8.0) and with 0-15 % (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 3-6 %). They did not reduce nitrate to nitrite nor hydrolyse Tweens 40 and 80, aesculin, casein, starch and DNA. The genomic G+C contents of draft genomes of strain MT13T and MT32 were 52.2 and 54.1 m ol%, respectively. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that strains MT13T and MT32 were affiliated with the genus Halomonas, with the highest similarity to the type strain of Halomonas olivaria. The values of average nucleotide identity and in silico DNA-DNA hybridization between strain MT13T and MT32, and between strain MT13T and five closely related type strains of Halomonas species indicated that strains MT13T and MT32 belonged to the same species, but represented a novel species in the genus of Halomonas. The major cellular fatty acids of strains MT13T and MT32 were C16 : 0, summed feature 3(C16 : 1  ω7c/ω6c) and summed feature 8 (C18 : 1  ω7c/ω6c). Major polar lipids of strains MT13T and MT32 included phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine and diphosphatidylglycerol. Ubiquinone-9 was the predominant respiratory quinone. Based on data from the present polyphasic study, strains MT13T and MT32 represent a novel species of the genus Halomonas, for which the name Halomonas profundi sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is MT13T (=MCCC 1K06389T=KCTC 82923T).
